If you need NDIS household cleaning in Palmerston, tell Smurfettes which rooms need attention and which parts of the home must stay accessible during the visit. We can discuss an order that fits your household, check availability for your address and provide a written quote.

Tell us what you need to keep accessible

Let us know about essential routes and facilities that must stay available, such as the front door, a toilet, a place to sit, drinking water, medication, a communication device or a pet-safe area. Share the practical instructions relevant to your home; a medical history is not needed to explain access.

Plan the cleaning one area at a time

Separate the requested cleaning into areas that can be worked on without blocking everything you need. This might be one bathroom, part of a kitchen, a hallway or a group of surfaces. Tell us the task, any limits and what alternative access or facility should stay available.

  • Area: the room or part of the home to be cleaned.
  • Task: the cleaning you would like in that area.
  • Access: the route, facility or routine that needs to stay available.
  • After cleaning: what needs to be ready for you to use the area again.

Agree how each area will be left

Tell us what matters before you use an area again, such as a dry floor, belongings returned to agreed positions, cleaning products removed or a clear doorway. If an instruction is unclear, ask for it to be discussed before the task is included in the quote.

Keep essential rooms and routes available

For example, one bathroom can be returned to use before another is started, or a clear route can be left through the home during floor cleaning. If there is no suitable alternative, discuss a different order, a smaller task or leaving that area for another arrangement.

Share mobility, sensory and communication preferences

Mention practical instructions that affect the cleaning: a route for mobility equipment, a quieter time, a fragrance or product preference, a door that must stay open or a visual cue that should remain in place. Tell us who can answer questions. Share only information needed for these arrangements.

Choose who may approve changes

Tell us who may approve moving an item, using a different product, entering a private room or adding time or tasks. If that person cannot be reached, the affected work should wait or remain outside the visit. Silence does not approve a change.

Check that the quote fits your household

The quote should list the rooms and tasks included, how areas will be left and any timing or order needed to keep access available. Check exclusions, optional work, the price, cancellation terms and how changes are agreed. Ask about anything that does not reflect your household’s needs.

NDIS funding for household cleaning

Household cleaning is not automatically payable from an NDIS plan. Check that the requested support relates to disability support needs, is included or otherwise permitted under the current plan, and follows the applicable funding and management rules. Ask your plan manager, support coordinator or my NDIS contact when the boundary is unclear. Keep ordinary tenancy costs, personal preferences and work outside the agreed support separate from any NDIS-funded line.

Plan management and payment records

For self-managed funding, confirm the records you need before paying and claiming. For plan-managed funding, give the plan manager the quote details needed for review. Before using NDIA-managed funds for the requested cleaning, ask the authorised funding contact to confirm the current my provider and registration steps for that proposed business. A quote or invoice is evidence of a transaction; it does not by itself decide whether the support is fundable.

Confirm practical details at the start of the visit

Confirm where the cleaner should start, which access must stay clear, how the area should be left and who to contact with questions. If the home or instructions have changed since the quote, discuss the affected task before it begins.

Let us know if your needs change

A different task, room, route, product instruction or household routine may change the order, time or price. Check the affected work and anything that depends on it, while keeping other agreed tasks unchanged.

Review the cleaning after the visit

Ask which tasks were completed, changed or left out, and check that essential routes and facilities are available as agreed. Note any unfinished work separately. The invoice should reflect the cleaning provided and any changes you approved.

Compare quotes using the same priorities

Give each business the same rooms, tasks and access needs. Compare the proposed order, exclusions, changes process and price. If a proposal would block an essential route or facility, ask about a different order or smaller task before deciding.
